At SFTV, we believe the best way to honor the invaluable contribution of restoration work is through the exhibition and viewing of great films. Each year, the Cineteca di Bologna, one of Europe's most renowned archives for film restoration and preservation, and the School of Film and Television at Loyola Marymount University present Il Cinema Ritrovato, a mini-film festival held on the LMU campus. The annual festival offers our students and community the opportunity to see a selection of restored works on the large screen.
